There’s been a lot of talk in the news about black on black crime – mainly gang related, but the biggest repeat offender that is hurting the black community isn’t gang related, and it’s not heart disease, AIDS, cancer, homicide or diabetes either. That’s why the following article appearing on Ebony.com under the “Wellness & Empowerment” section is not only disturbing, but also misleading in many ways.
There’s nothing well or empowering about it. It’s a story about the lack of personal accountability and the number one killer in the black community – abortion.
It’s titled “I Just Had an Abortion: A black woman on making the best choice for herself, despite the stigmas and shaming attempts.” Author “Tasha Fierce” tries to explain the difference between abortion for black women versus abortion for white women:
Last month, I had an abortion.
I’ve been a strident advocate for a woman’s right to choose since I was a pre-teen, and it’s still difficult for me to say those words. So many assumptions about my life can be made on the basis of that admission, and the shame is real. For White women in American society, the shame of having an abortion is mainly centered on their individual behavior. For Black women, our behavior reflects on Black folks as a whole, specifically other Black women—so the scope of the shame is much wider. An unintended pregnancy can call your responsibility into question, and regardless of your age, the specter of the stereotypical Black teenage mother casts a long shadow.

A quick history of Eugenics.
Free after killing but notice she wasn’t aborted. All the pro-abortion crowd is alive ....
“An unintended pregnancy can call your responsibility into question, and regardless of your age, the specter of the stereotypical Black teenage mother casts a long shadow.”
And right off the bat, I’m confused. Did she get pregnant or not? So, she got an abortion so she wouldn’t be seen as irresponsible? I guess having an abortion is seen as less onerous than being seen as a stereotypical black teenager?
I’ll admit I didn’t read the whole thing. My head hurt after the first paragraph.
No wellness and empowerment for her DEAD BABY!
It’s more and act of selfiness and stupidity.
Why stop them. They are “aborting” themselves out of the gene pool. After a couple of the generations, there won’t be any of them left. Problem solved.
“An unintended pregnancy can call your responsibility into question,”
Yeh like you are too stupid to get on birth control. Not to mention unprotected sex.
God have mercy on your soul if this is really what you did.....
"For making the world a better place for my grandchildren, by taking yourself out of the gene pool."
Well, yes ... but an intended abortion leaves no doubt of your intent to kill the innocent.
Let us pray that this deluded and violent woman receive the grace of repentance and conversion.
The abortionists’ tools have killed many more black Americans than all the Klan, white cops and racists could ever imagine.
